Alec,

It could be your drivers, and it could be the "auto-cofigure' feature of 
the trackpoint freaking out.  The trackpoint often takes off on a little 
journey, but for me, only moves about an inch, then stops.  I beleive it 
is reconfiguring.

At one point, it started doing EXACTLY what you mentioned, only I 
couldn't get it to stay down.....eventualy had to have the service tech 
come replace the eyboard, which they did no sight in less than 24 hours time!
